April Fool's Day

Tomorrow is April 1st and you know what that means -- time for an April Fool's joke!

I came up with one for this year. Robin is a big fan of "The Godfather," having seen it a hundred times. She's also fastidious about making her bed. Combine the two and... voila.

After she makes the bed in the morning, I'll sneak in and stick a (fake) severed horse-head under the sheet. She'll see a bump and wonder what it is. She'll pull back the sheet... boom!

I made the horse-head from an old stuffed animal picked up at a thrift-store. What do you think?

  2. That is hilarious. I did an April Fool's joke for our company newsletter: I am doing a "Seagull Saga" for my offsite coworkers, taking pictures of the seagulls starting to nest on the neighbouring building (I caption the seagulls, it's quite funny). Today, I noticed a couple of Canada Geese on the roof, so I took some pictures and made an article about the "Rare Giant Brown Gulls". :) I love little jokes like that.

    I think Robin is going to throw it at you. :)

  3. She might just call you something that refers to the opposite end of what she's found. ;-)

  6. Lol! You always come up with such sweet pranks.

    For me April 1st is just March 32nd. Although it's been March for over a year now, but who is counting? Time is an illusion. ;P

  7. I tried to play a prank on my hubby yesterday and it totally did not work! Next year I need to plan further in advance.

    1. The biggest ingredient of success is the planning. I find it best to hit them where they don't expect it. Good luck!

  8. This is hat doffingly brilliant! I hope that Robin wasn't unnerved by your playful homage to a true cinematic classic and that you two can now laugh your heads off (sorry, couldn't resist) when you look back on April Fool's Day 2021.
